"Your comfortable, well-equiped apartment was ideal for us for our 9-day stay in Paris. The location allowed us to walk nearly everywhere in the city and each day we stumbled upon another great find in the neighborhood for a wonderful meal or a café. Despite its location in the heart of the city, the apartment was quiet and provided a wonderful resting place after busy days. We will be happy to recommend the apartment to friends and family."

Perfect location - simple but functional
Guest: Heather

Date of Stay: 12/22/11
Review Submitted: 01/09/12
This apartment was perfect for a family of 4. It was simple and cozy, as the title suggests and very well located for exploring all over Paris, or just staying close by in the Quartier Latin. We ate in for several meals and the kitchen was appropriately sized. There was noise transference between the two bedrooms, the dryer was not working and a number of the lights in the bathroom were burned out, but these were minor problems and otherwise we had a smooth stay. Jean-Pierre was very helpful and kindly accommodated our early arrival. We also found lots of helpful information for our stay, in the pamphlets and binders Jean-Pierre supplied. The apartment would typically be quiet, except that renovation work was going on in the building at the time of our stay, so we did have construction work in the mornings. We would absolutely stay here again, as it met our needs and our budget.
Owner response:Dear Heather, I apologize for the renovation work which tainted your stay at my place. It was scheduled to be finished by your time of arrival, but was unduly delayed. If you choose to come again, please mention this exchange of review and response, and I will give you a discount. Best regards and happy new year. Jean-Pierre

J.P. Thank you for a wonderful Parisian experience - what a joy to be able to be here in such a great location! Easy to find everything one could possibly want! You're going to have to come to California sometime! We so appreciated your apartment and indulged in the movies. Your explanation book was brillant! Great instructions. We experienced many great things but the ease of living here for 9 days was what made it all the more enjoyable. How lucky to be in such a vibrant city! Thank you again, Au Revoir,

Jean-Pierre, Thank you so much for letting us use this amazing little home. We really liked the location and all the amazing monuments around us. We will tell all our friends in Boulder about this home. We think this is probably the best place we've ever stayed in, in Paris.

First time in the beautiful city of Paris. Perfect location to beautiful and historic sights. Cobblestones, gargoyles - splendor. Amazing. Historical. And the food - yum. If I ever get the oppotunity to return, which I hope to - the apartment is the best location I could ever imagine. The memories will stay with me forever, the sights and sounds of beautiful Paris. Au revoir.

Jean-Pierre We've been extremely privileged to have been able to visit Paris, not once, but twice in the same month - and even more so by being able to stay in the cutest apartment in Paris! It has its own little personality and character - helpted by its owner, JP. After long days sipping on coffee, shopping, seeing the famous sights - and most importantly, being 'French', it was nice to be able to come "home' to this fabulous apartment. Thank you, Jean-Pierre, for your fantastic hospitality during our two stays... truly a gentleman with great taste in wine! (and his love for cherries ;-) ) Expect to hear from us again, hopefully in the near future. We love Paris and the Latin Quarter! Love from your Aussie friends, (PS: go to the creperie 4 doors down and ask for a Nutella crêpe - this was our diet for most of the stay. :P

Jean-Pierre, Thank you for the perfect Paris accomodations. We loved being in the center of everything. So convenient. Thank you for meeting us here, showing us how to maneuver and for leaving special "snacks". You are a host anyone would love.

Our second stay at JP's! Once again we found the location perfect. The shopping along Rue St André des Arts is as good as anywhere else in Paris. We enjoyed dinner at "Vin et Terroirs", again, just down the street. Although we used the metro a couple of times, there was little need as there was so much to see within walking distance of the apartment, eg: the oldest church in Paris, the oldest restaurant in Paris, the oldest tree in Paris. We plan to return again!

Dear JP and Jules, Thank you so much for letting us stay in your aartment for the week! The location was perfect for shopping and for picking up something to eat. We particularly enjoyed the movies in your collection and we watched one or two every night after walking all over Paris. This was an unforgetable trip for all of us and we will hopefully be coming back again someday! Thank you for the wonderful experience and the beautiful apartment.

We have had a wonderful week exploing more of Paris, thanks to this quiet and comfortable escape. Who would believe we could have such a relaxing space just steps off the busy and interesting streets of the Latin Quarter? After hours of walking around Paris nearly every day, it felt great to come "home", put up our feet, and recharge for the next adventure. Thank you for the wine and fresh fruit, which we throughly enjoyed.

My 10 year old twins and I stayed at this apartment for a week to celebrate their 11th birthday. We had more than a great time. We tried out hardest to figure out how we could rent the apartment for a year. Alas reality sank in. My kids could go out the front door by themselves and get crepes from one of the many creperies on Rue des las Artistes. In the morning they would go down the street for pain chocolat. I honestly could not have been happier with the apartment. I was very warmly welcomed by JP and his son Jules. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
